How can I dump a database in neo4j?
I have tried to follow the recommendations on the website and nothing works.
In Neo4j Desktop 1.3.11 you can click on the dot dot dot in the top right (database must be stopped first), and choose the option Dump (my test named the file movie-database-neo4j-2020-12-11T184026.dump)
Note: You will probably have to search your disk (for *.dump) to find where the files drop, on Macintosh I found them in an unexpected folder location, they were placed with the Project instead of in the database's dump folder whereI expected them to fall out.
I found my dumps over in here
I tried changing the config and created data/dumps/ folder in the database area but it still sends them to the project area. YMMV

I'm new to Neo4j. I've just opened the Desktop application. Starting a Project, the dashboard lists "Add Database" and "Add File". If data is stored in a database then what's a file? I don't get what a file does. Off hand, when I click on each (either the sample database or the sample file) they open the database browser thing so this doesn't help to understand the difference either..
You would use Add File to reference a file with a Cypher query (or series of Cypher queries).
When you open a file that you've saved here, it will open the browser window (associated with the currently running Database) and paste the file contents into the query box.
So this is a more portable way to save important queries saved in files (such as already established scripts in Cypher) that you expect to run often or reuse/test across databases.
Add Database is used to create a new database instance (technically "dbms" would be the better term, since this doesn't have to do with multi-database features in Neo4j). You can select the version of Neo4j to use for the database, and configure and manage it as needed.
I am trying to use pgAdmin 4 on my personal laptop (Windows operating system with PostgreSQL 9.6) to export a database as a .tar file. I had issues importing csv through the Import/Export tool as well, and could only import successfully when doing the following:
COPY public.build_info FROM 'C:\time_table.csv' CSV HEADER;
I have read a few questions that resort to backing up a database through the command line, but I am hoping to complete this within pgAdmin4.
My current steps are:
right click my database (in this case Housing_DB)
Choose my directory to save (same place the csv files were imported from)
Add additional information (encoding, file type, name, etc.)
I get an error immediately connected to Permissions, but have struggled to determine how to fix this issue:
Does anybody know how I could go through and provide permissions to be able to back up this database? I have looked at the documentation pertaining to backup/restore but did not see anything covering permissions (https://www.pgadmin.org/docs4/1.x/backup_dialog.html).
It looks like your C:\ is protected by administrator account which can't be written by user postgres. Can you try again with locations like your 'Desktop' or 'Temp' folder.
I'm trying to locate a log file created by a CSP that under IE11 is stored in DRIVE:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Virtualized...
Where are users' temporary files created when using the Edge browser?
I don't have Windows 10 installed on this machine to look for the exact location, but it should be somewhere in this directory:
%LocalAppData%\Spartan
If they've already switched folder names to Edge, then just replace instances of Spartan as necessary. You may need to un-hide hidden folders if you haven't already changed that setting.
I have installed neo4j spatial in my Geoserver2.6 and now I am trying to see an example of a database.
I created in geoserver a workspace and then I want to add a new store. I select the neo4j store but then I don't know what to put in the field "Connection Parameters" (The directory path of the Neo4j database).
Till now I was using postgis, which you add the host name and the port.
What should I put in this field?
Any help will be mostly appreciated.
Thanks

EDIT:
I found out that the directory path must have this form:
file:C:/Program Files/NEO4J_HOME/neo4j-community-1.9.9/data/graph.db/neostore.id
The path points to the neostore.id file inside the database.
The problem remains. Nothing happens when I select the save button in geoserver.
The original wiki that contained the answer to this was shut down a while back. But there is a copy at http://oss.infoscience.co.jp/neo4j/wiki.neo4j.org/content/Neo4j_Spatial_in_GeoServer.html. This is old information, but should still contain the answer you are looking for.
With the Neo4j 2.0.0 Community edition, is there a way to change the default database location?
Seems like every time I start the program it points back to the default location (in the user's documents directory).
I tried editing the neo4j-server.properties file and adding a line to specify the desired directory there, but this didn't seem to work:
org.neo4j.server.database.location=C:\MyGraphDatabaseDirectory
Changing the default location seems to be limitation of the community edition. What you can do is a "junction point" using the mklink command:
mklink /j C:\Users\<USER>\Documents\Neo4j\default.graphdb D:\Data\Neo4j\default.graphdb
That way you don't need to change the path of the database. The default path will point to the desired location.
When starting Neo4j 2.0 Community edition on Windows you will see a dialog UI with a data folder location that you can browse to. To change your data location, browse to a different folder and then click the start button.
Closest thing you can get to is to add a shortcut (to your app's neo4j database) in the default neo4j database folder (or in the parent folder),
I.E.:
In C:\Users\YOURUSER\Documents\Neo4j create a Windows Shortcut (browse to the folder in windows explorer, right click-> create shortcut), --> Create the shortcut to your app's neo4j db location.
Then when you open Neo4j's Window gui, you can go to browse -> click your shortcut and be directly into the folder you want.
It's far from a perfect solution, but it saves a lot of clicking!
In windows, you create a new folder and the you choose it when you want to start your server
